The Greatest Gift He Ever Made.

Ii has been stated In some Of our exchanges
that Mr. III. H. Warner, Of Rochester, N u, in
the last eight years, has, through his devotion
10 science, built an astronomical observatory
at an estimated value OF sl0U,OOO and gwen
between "a, 900 and 81, 900 in pr zes for astro-
nomical discovery.
This is ali very well, il Mr. Warner seeks to
divert his energies in this channel But from
all we can hear among the people, If he never
gave anything 10 the world except his great
remedy, Warmers safe cure, formerly known
as Warmers safe kidney and liver cure he
would be comforting the most practical and
far-reaching benefit that IL Is in the power OF
any one man TO give the public.
II is now conceded that he has the only
specific for dney disease and uric acid in the
blood, and medical authorities OF candor agree
that ii the blood is freed from uric acid by
that great remedy, and the kidneys are kept in
health, over ninety per cent OF human dis
eases disappears. =.
The manufacturers evidently know, and II
they do no., we would like to tell them, OF the
unanimity OF public sentiment in favor OF
their great remedy; indeed, they seem 10 real
ize th4, when they say: IF you do not be-
leye the statements we make, ask your friends
and neighbors, what they think of Warner d
safe cure" Such evidence OF confidence in
the established character and worth OF their
preparation is unprecedented. Unless they
know il has merit, and will do precisely what
they state they would not dare give such ad-
vice to the public
Such confidence ought 10 be infectious.

The Senses as Affected BIZ Sex.

If the senses are taken seriatim it
will be evident that they are not paral-
lei in men and women. The latter pos
sess, in a much greater degree, the
perfection of the sense of touch; those
occupations that require extreme deli
cacy of manipulation, such as lace
making, embroidery, bead-stringing,
etc., are therefore usually followed by
women. AS regards the sense of hear
ing we are not aware of any expert
ments or observations on the relative
perfection of the sense in the two sexes !;
and the same may be said as regards
the sense of sight, which appears to be
equally acute III women and in men.
In the extreme delicacy of taste it is
probable that men excel. Whether
they do so naturally, or in consequence
of the cultivation of mems palates is,
perhaps, moot question; but that
they excel not only as gourmands but
also as gourme.s may be accepted as
an established fact, and the accurate
perception of the delicate shades of
difference distinguishing different
brands and vintages of wine is much
more frequently found In men than in
women. AS regards the sense of smell,
some exceedingly conclusive expert
ments have been made by some Amer
lean savants which appear to subvert
our preconceived opinions. The ex-
perimcnts were performed with prussic
acid and other strongly odorous sub
stances on forty-four males and thirty
eight females. and it was found that in
nearly all cases the sense of smell was
about double as acute in men as in
women. The cause of the difference in
| this matter between men and women is
quite unknown, as is the object of the
distinction; but it has one practical
bearing that may be borne in mind.
The employment of strong and potent
perfumes by women may depend on
their less acute sense of smell; and
they would do we'll to bear in mind the
/ fact that odors and perfumes which
may be quite pleasant to them may be
almost overpowering and decidedly un-
pleasant to individuals of the other sex.

A Generous Remembrance.

From the Boston Post.
Not long ago wealthy citizen OF Bos-
ton departed leaving several children,
but no widow, his wife havlngdied some
years before. His estate was very large,
amounting I believe, to more than
half million dollars. By his will he
left three-quarters of this property to
his three children, in trust. and the re-
naming one-quarter he bequeathed to
an acquaintance who now lives in New
York. There had been no particular
intimacy between the two men, and
almost everybody who knew them
was exceedingly surprised that the be-
quest should have been made. 1t is
hardly necessary to say that all kinds
of explanations were advanced by the
world, most of which involved some
scandalous relations between the two
persons concerned. l happened to
know the true solution of the mys-
terry. Many years ago-how many
do not care to say-the Boston man
had offered himself to beautiful girl,
who refused him and subsequently,
married his less prosperous rival. In
course of time the rejected sutton also
married. as men do, and dying, he
took this means OF adding to the hap.
pine, OF his old love. who was sorely
In need of the money. I think that
everybody will admire both the gener-
osity OF the gift and the tact which led
the testator to make it to the hus'
band instead of to the wife.

Queen Christina Converts an En-
envy into a Friend.


envy into a Friend.
Letter in the New York Sun.
A well-known poet Of Spain, de-
servedly famous for his work, was at
the same time a man of most ad
vanced radical opinions, and waged
such bitter and open war against the
regency that he was at last arrested,
tried and exiled. He was but scantily
endowed with the worlds goods, and
the wife and children he left behind
soon fell into absolute poverty. The
poet petitioned Queen Christina for
pardon in their behalf, and was at
once permitted by her to return to
Spain and to his family. He obtained
an audience and went in person to
tender his thanks to the sovereign and
offer the expressions of his gratitude
and homage. He was graciously treat
ed, less as the enemy that was than
the future friend.
Suddenly the queen said: "You are
not rich, senior; literary men OF merit
seldom are, and you have large fam
lily, have you not2"
II have six children, your majesty"
"Six," continued the queen; "then
there are three for you and three for
me-"
From that day the poets three
daughters were cared for and educated
at the queens expense, who considers
them as her special and personal
charge.

Steel Rails.

Railway age.-The price ofsteel rails
has declined fully 81 per ton within q
week. The reason is that the Ameri-
can rail. makers have resolved that no
more foreign rails shall be laid on
American soil. Prices have declined
to $36. rs, which it is said, is'the low
est price at which rails have been sold
since the railmaker's syndicate was
formed. The tendency is toward high
er prices in foreign rail maj kets, al.
though the advance is on paper, no
doubt. Contracts amounting to ST.
600 tons, which as late as three weeks
ago It looked would go abroad, have
been secured at home at prices vary
ing from $36.76 to 1895. The ship
and boat yards all over the country
are very busy. The demand for heavy
iron and steel plates is equal almost
to the productive capacity. The iron
and steel output is increasing, and in
general way prices are firm, with an
upward tendency, except in pig iron,
which is weakened by the general re-
sumption OF the coke furnaces, which
have been idle for some time.

too; and more. that she had told her
husband all about it.
"Well, now for your confession,

talked between the whiffs. "What is

"And 30 do; drive on, Berkeley.
Pm settled as good listener" and he
ensconced himself in on Indian loung-
ing chair, looking thoroughly at
home.
But the captain never before was SO
vague and disjointed, and took his
leave as early as he possibly could.
That night he drew up a telegram,
and desired it might be sent of at the
earliest hour the following morning.
1t was to his friend. Falkner, begging
him to bring the yacht to fetch him
the same day.
He was waiting upon the seashore
with his small porrmanteau beside
| HIM when the little craft hove in sight,
bring him on board.
"Well, old man, and how is the fair
inamorata?" laughed his friend, look
| ing at his clouded face.
"She is, like all the rest, a heartless
coquette," returned Berkeley, savage
ly.
Capt. Falkner gave a long, low whis'
| tie.
"Does the wind lie that way? Well,
old fellow, l was once Tilted myself,

married woman, and she and her hus-
band enjoyed the joke together; that's
all, and so ends my day dream"
And from that hour Capt. Berkeley
has never been known to mention the
subject.
Capt. Falkner learnt the details lat
er on from Major La Coste, who seem
ed to think the affair rare fun.
